This 1948 Studebaker has a 1950 Front Clip (with Bullet Nose) and a 350 Chevy Engine - 350 Turbo Tranny.

These two main features determined the Sniglet style name:
Studebaker + Chevrolet = Studeolet.

The body was bought in April 1993 by Howard and Lupita of Santee, California for $2500 Dollars US. Restoration build began in July 2005. After 8 years, the first "On-Road" outing was July 2013.

Not wanting to experience "sticker-shock", Howard refuses to tally all the receipts for this project.

* The A-posts had to be re-moved and custom ones re-installed to allow for the door movement of the Lambo hinges.
